Chicken And Watercress Wraps Recipes

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high. In a large bowl, combine oil and lemon juice; season dressing with salt and pepper.
• Lay chicken flat. Holding a sharp knife parallel to work surface, split each chicken breast in half horizontally. Cover with plastic wrap and pound each piece with the flat side of a meat mallet or the bottom of a small pan until 1/4 inch thick. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons dressing and sprinkle with cumin.
• Clean and oil grill. Grill chicken until cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side. To bowl with dressing, add watercress, radishes, and avocado and toss to combine. Serve chicken topped with watercress salad.

Steps:

• Put all but 2 tablespoons of the scallions in a blender; add the ginger, jalapeno, brown sugar, fish sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, tomato and 1/4 teaspoon salt and blend until smooth. Transfer to a 6-quart slow cooker.
• Add the chicken and mushrooms to the slow cooker and stir to coat. Cover and cook on low, 4 hours.
• Roughly chop the watercress and stir into the slow cooker. Serve the chicken and vegetables with rice; top with the reserved scallions.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Chop a handful of watercress, then mix into the cheese. Make a finger-tip length cut into the thick end of the chicken, pushing the knife two-thirds of the way through the breast. Poke your fingers into the incision and loosen the chicken to create a hole. Stuff with the Boursin mix, then wrap tightly with bacon.
• Lift onto a baking tray and roast for 25 mins or until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is golden. Meanwhile, boil the potatoes for 15 mins or until tender. Serve the chicken and potatoes together with some more watercress and any juices from the chicken spooned over.

Steps:

• Spread 2 tablespoons of spreadable cheese over each tortilla. Layer with the lettuce, tomatoes, chicken, cucumber and carrot. Roll up tightly.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place onion and garlic inside chicken cavity. Slide fingertips between chicken breast skin and meat to loosen skin. Stuff chopped watercress under skin. Tie chicken lets together. Place chicken in roasting pan. Rub butter over chicken. Season with salt and pepper. Bake chicken until juices run clear when thickest part of thigh is pierced, basting every 15 minutes with pan juices, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Transfer chicken to platter. Let stand 10 minutes. Surround with remaining watercress and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper to taste; add to skillet and cook 5 minutes, turning once, until lightly browned. Drain off any fat; add broth, soy sauce, lime juice and ginger. Reduce heat and simmer chicken mixture for 20 minutes, until cooked through and the chicken is no longer pink in the center. With a slotted spoon, transfer chicken to a plate; cover and keep warm.
• Cut each bunch of watercress in half; add to skillet along with the green onions and cilantro; cover and cook 2-3 minutes, until onions are tender-crisp.
• Divide the greens and broth mixture between 4 serving plates. Place 2 chicken thighs over top of greens, and serve with rice, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high. Mix the turkey or chicken with half of the hoisin sauce so that it's coated, then spread out onto an ovenproof dish and grill until sizzling. Warm the tortillas under the grill or according to pack instructions.
• Spread the tortillas with the rest of the hoisin sauce, then use to wrap up the turkey or chicken with the cucumber, onions and watercress. Cut in half and enjoy while still warm.

Steps:

• To make the sauce, mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl until completely blended. Heat the oil in a frying pan until very hot. Throw in the chicken, cashew nuts, pepper and onion, then stir-fry for about 4-5 mins until the chicken is cooked and the nuts are toasted. Pour over the sauce and simmer with a splash of water. Remove the pan from the heat, then stir through the watercress just before serving with boiled rice.

Steps:

• Mix together the mayonnaise, cucumber, 1 tablespoon of honey, 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, and black pepper in a bowl until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
• Heat the olive oil in a skillet on medium-high heat, and cook and stir the chicken breast strips until they are beginning to turn golden and are no longer pink in the middle, about 8 minutes. Stir in the salsa, 1 tablespoon of honey, and 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have blended, about 5 minutes.
• Stack the tortillas, 4 at a time, in a microwave oven and heat until warm and pliable, 20 to 30 seconds per batch.
• Spread each tortilla with 1 tablespoon of the mayonnaise-cucumber mixture, top with a layer of baby spinach leaves, and arrange about 1/2 cup of chicken mixture on the spinach leaves.
• Fold the bottom of each tortilla up about 2 inches, and start rolling the burrito from the right side. When the burrito is half-rolled, fold the top of the tortilla down, enclosing the filling, and continue rolling to make a tight, compact cylinder.

Steps:

• Grab a large handful of the watercress, roughly snap off the large stalks, then put into a mini blender or food processor (or use a hand blender) with the crème fraîche and a good squeeze of lime juice. Whizz until the watercress is finely chopped, then season with pepper and chill until ready to assemble.
• Fry the bacon (in batches if necessary) on a medium heat for 8-10 mins, turning, until golden and crispy. Meanwhile, shred or slice the chicken.
• Split the baguettes in half lengthways and brush the insides with the juices from the bacon pan, then pile the chicken and bacon inside. Top with a handful of watercress, then finally add a good spoon of the watercress crème fraîche before you tuck in.
